London, December 25 : Lady Gaga thinks those who listen to her music are smart people.

The pop sensation said that most of her fans are youngsters.

"They''re just the most brilliant in the world," the Mirror quoted her as telling MTV News.

She added: "My fans are f*****g really smart - they''re art students, they''re club kids, and some of them are just normal Top 40-listening kids in high school who don''t feel like they have an identity yet and they''re searching for one.

"My dad was at a show the other night and afterwards he said, ''Do you think your fans are smart?'' and I said, ''Oh hell yeah, my fans are smart,'' and he said, ''You know what, I was thinking the same thing during the show''."

She continued that her fans have been her "favourite artists of 2009".

She said: "Every song I did, they remade on their own, and every photograph that I took, they took their own version of it.

"They remade my music videos, they designed clothes for me. They wrote poetry and made films and designed all sort of amazing paintings." (ANI)
